This ceremonial session was created to honor the universal postpartum needs of all new mothers and all birthing experiences. In the days following the birth of your baby, you are also reborn on many levels. Your mind, body, and spirit reflect this. They need nourishment, connection and love in the same way that your new baby does. When a woman is deeply supported, she can properly care for her newborn.

This session is meant to take place in your home, ideally on the very day you come home from wherever you birth your baby – or in the home on the day the baby arrives. This day can feel chaotic and overwhelming amidst all the newness and change, and the Woven team will be there to receive you and hold space for whatever arises.

Light housework is done while you rest with baby in bed, enjoying the nourishing snacks we provide. We set the tone for a relaxing and nurturing experience with gentle music in the background, fresh flowers, and baby-friendly essential oils.

We offer a ceremonial foot bath followed by a foot massage with warming sesame oil. We then offer womb massage that is meant to help close the womb, bring your organs and muscles back in alignment, and support your recovery. We end with a belly binding and guidance on how to self-bind.
